Question: 1 / 400

In Canadian waters outside the Great Lakes Basin, what must a power-driven vessel pushing another exhibit?

A special flashing light at the forward end

Two masthead lights configured in a vertical line

A power-driven vessel pushing another vessel is known as a "vessel with push gear." This configuration is required to display two masthead lights in a vertical line when operating in Canadian waters outside of the Great Lakes Basin. This is to ensure other vessels can clearly identify and avoid the vessel with push gear. Option A is incorrect because a special flashing light is not required. Option C is incorrect because a red flashing light is only required for a vessel towing a disabled vessel or object. Option D is incorrect because a blue flashing light is only required for a vessel engaged in mine clearance operations.
